Chocolate Candle

The picture nearly says it all really. Solid chocolate candle. Will burn but only briefly till the flame reaches the chocolate. Can be eaten.

Here's the chocolate slug...

As always, solid chocolate painted with pigmented cocoa butter. In the end they're meant to be eaten.

New additions to chocolate 'Pond Life – British Icons': European Eel and the Great Crested Newt.
Together with earthworm, snails, leech, toad and slug (coming soon) they were the main characters in a diorama mimicking their natural habitat. Unfortunately the show was cancelled but I'm hopeful I'll get a chance in the near future to put it all together.
The exhibit would have been accompanied by a museum shop, serving as a buffet...

This earthworm is the first of a new series: Pond Life Exhibition. 

It's made from chocolate as is the earthy bit it sits on; 9cm long.

She was part of my Experimental Food Society Spectacular entry, but this has unfortunately been cancelled. The other animals are in the making so keep an eye out over the next few weeks.

For the interested: the skeleton in the logo is that of the Attenborosaurus, a Plesiosaurus named after Sir David Attenborough.

I would like to mention that when I was a little boy David Attenborough's tv series and books were highly valued in our household. They still are ofcourse. As a token of appreciation my father sent him a letter, only to find Sir David promptly sent a postcard back to thank us. Since I'm writing it here I've clearly never forgotten. I love this man, I really do and I can't imagine my life without his tremendous influence. 
So dear Sir David Attenborough, I doubt you'll ever read this but: thank you so much!

Anatomical Venus original sculpture

Most of my chocolates are casts. Casts from moulds I make from sculptures. This allows me to make multiples rather than one-offs. Here's the 'Original Anatomical Venus'. She's just over 20cm long.

Chocolate Anatomical Venus

Based on various real Anatomical Veni (?) and the final addition to the Chocolate Victorian Pharmacy. Approx. 750g of white high quality chocolate.

Brian

Chocolate sculpture. When posted on facebook he was promptly named Brian. Brian was made out of pure dark high quality chocolate with bits of white for his eyes and teeth and green coloured cocoa butter. Unfortunately he stayed out in the sun too long and has since lost quite a bit of his appeal.
